Acta Pathologica Japonica
|July 1, 1977
Summary
Two unusual meningioma cases revealed distinct vacuoles. Smaller vacuoles were intracellular lipid droplets, while larger ones were extracellular spaces, aiding in differential diagnosis.
Area of Science:
- Neuropathology
- Surgical Pathology
Background:
- Meningiomas are typically benign tumors arising from meningothelial cells.
- Extensive vacuolization in meningiomas is uncommon and can pose diagnostic challenges.
